Destiny's choice

Chapter 9

Daisy: "That is what I was coming for. Those roses has just been brought here by a postman I think, and he said it was for you."

Courtney: "Oh Really? Show it to me."

Daisy gave her the roses which perfume was fragrant in the room. Courtney reached for the cart to see from who it was but on it there only were printed few words: "from: always with you"

Courtney's Heart stopped for a second: 'Could it be Duncan? No! I don't think so. But then who is it? I think it is maybe a fan that is supporting me. Yeah I think that's it. Then she snapped back to reality as she saw her sister reading the card and ask who it was. Courtney said that she didn't know and maybe it is a supporter of hers or something. 'But how would this person have your address then? Courtney thought curiously but said: "Daisy I am hungry lets have dinner I think that Mom and Dad are being late. By the way could you put the flowers in a vase in my room for me please? Because I love their perfume."

Daisy: "Okay, sure"

Courtney: "Thank you, I am going to the rest room be right back."

Daisy's POV

As soon as she went to the rest room I put the flowers in a vase like she told me and put them on her desk. But then a temptation run through my body like electricity; a temptation of opening the laptop to check out what she was doing. I opened it quickly and pressed the "on" button. The screen lighted up then required a password. 'Damn it!' I was about to try to unlock it when I heard the rest room's door flung open in the corridor. I closed the laptop quickly and made my way to her bedroom's door quickly as she entered the room.

"I put the flowers on your desk as you told me. Let's go have dinner?"

"Okay!" She said smiling as we made our way to the kitchen. 'oouf' I thought to myself in relief. 'I almost got caught'.

As we sat by the kitchen table I asked: "So what do you wanna eat Court? There are some lasagna and salad want some?"

"Yes please" She said as I put a plate in the microwave to heat it up. I looked at Courtney, She was obviously thinking and she had a sad look on her face so I said: "what is it? Are you thinking of him?"

She looked at the clock to avoid eye Contact then said: "I am thinking of everything..." I took that as a yes to my question but then she pursued: "...But most of all I am thinking of you all, those who are handling the consequences with me especially you little Daisy."

She was so cute sometimes thinking of others, even if she didn't show it much. I took her hands as she looked at me fake smiling : "Court, we all love you so much: me, Bridgette, Mom and Dad so just stop worrying about us we are fine and what we want is to see you good and happy and you know your little sis isn't that little anymore she can help you whenever you need it and she loves to do so and you can count on her." I said smiling putting a smile on her face as she wiped two tears.

"Crying? Why?"

"Nothing it's just that I am happy and thankful to have a sister like you."

'Aww how sweet<3' I thought then I said to change the atmosphere: "Do you think that your child is thankful and happy to have an aunty like me too?"

"Sure he is" She said as we laughed but got interrupted by a beeping microwave.

When we were done eating she grabbed her cellphone and dialed Bridgette's number to tell her to come over so they can talk. Bridgette was talented most of the time when it was about giving Courtney comfort; don't get me wrong, I am talented too. Bridgette told her that she would be here right after passing by a store on her way.

-After 30 minutes-

Someone knocked on the door: Bridgette. I opened it and greeted her. We sat in the living room then Courtney came. She was certainly shutting her laptop down I think. She hugged Bridge and then the blonde handed her a bag saying: "Since you began to buy stuffs to your child I thought that bringing you a gift on my way here wouldn't be a bad idea!"

"Oh Bridge you shouldn't have! you are always with me and you go shopping with me for baby stuff too this is enough!" Then Court opened the bag to get a small white baby ensemble out of it; a very cute one. (outfit in picture)

"Thanks! I love it!" She said hugging her Blonde friend.

"All natural" she answered with a smile.

Then we talked about a lot of things: how Courtney was handling her pregnancy, the baby, the things bought to this unborn child and Duncan (at this point Courtney didn't talk much), the psychologist, the roses, Bridge and Geoff, well everything except the Courtney secret that was hidden on her laptop. I was really teased and curious about the subject that I decided to bring it up.

"Court!"

"Yes?"

"I know that you will maybe tell me that it is personal but what do you do when you spend hours in your room with a locked door?"

"Not much! Rest, listen to music, talk to my child, and arrange the baby's clothes. you know..."

"Just that?"

"Yes Why?"

"Because I saw you on your laptop today when I entered the room and then you immediately closed the screen violently..."

"Oh that?"

"Yeah..."

"Uh...Nothing much you know..."

Bridge than interrupted: "Court, I know this is irrational but were you talking or on Skype with ....you know....."

"Duncan!? You mean Duncan? Of course not you really don't know me Bridge do you?"

"Well..."

"What were you doing then?" asked Daisy curiously.

"Reading about Babies, How to raise a child and take care of a new born and stuff..."

Bridgette: "But you bought books about that!"

"Yes and I wanted to know more so I thought of the internet this time is that wrong?"

Daisy: "I guess not..."

Okay maybe she wasn't talking to Duncan or was she? Anyway, It wasn't for reading Stuff about newborns or listening to music that she was on her laptop I didn't believe her. I am gonna find out. I promise.
